State Tax Notes recognizes the Multistate Tax Commission for its influence on state tax policy and practice in 2015.

"The MTC had a blockbuster year, despite having a full plate and a thin staff," said University of Connecticut law professor Richard Pomp, State Tax Notes' 2013 Person of the Year for his work as hearing officer on the MTC's proposed revisions to the Uniform Division of Income for Tax Purposes Act.

"They successfully modernized UDITPA after the Uniform Law Commission's debacle," Pomp said. "They have exerted herculean efforts in formulating regulations under UDITPA that will improve on what other states have already adopted. And if that were not enough, they produced a series of amicus briefs that were well written and analytically rigorous. We all stand on the shoulders of those that come before us, so Shirley Sicilian and Joe Huddleston deserve kudos for laying the groundwork of a first-rate group."
